Just saw the news rondo had surgery for a broken hand. Out 6-8 weeks, my Marcus smart pick might turn out pretty well to start off with. Same with whoever drafted Evan turner

looking at the time stamps it looked like Popeye jumped the gun. Popeye made the pick only 4 hours and 48 minutes after Fendis pick. I dunno if stick woulda made the pick in six hours but it does look like stick was prematurely skipped. if someone could corroborate my analysis please do.

You are right, now I get the MitchelUK comment for two hours. I never changed the time zone in my profile (I moved to Oman recently) which made me think that 6h 48m passed and that wasn't true. Stick did make his pick 3h 17m after mine, so in theory it is outside 6h.

However, Stick, I'm sorry and I apologise. If you wanted Dunleavy, we can exchange picks, I'm OK with Olynyk.

Anyone with an upcoming pick want to swap our next 2 picks?

Dunleavy was actually my guy, no joke, but Ive since sold myself on Kelly so its cool.

If we are adding "beautiful locks of hair" as a category this season, the Kelly is definitely the better pick.

I'm really happy with my team. I think it's the best I've had in this league

I was wondering the same - what's the protocol for the person following someone who missed their pick? Because it's been 13 hours since Stick's clock started, which means that despite him belatedly making his selection, if Pop's clock started six hours after stick's then it should have expired about an hour ago as well.

I've emailed Pop just in case he didn't know he was up, and I'll leave it a shot while before I make my pick.

Thanx! I really didn't know I was OTC. Anyhow, I'm happy with the last pick. There was quite a few other available options to try to find a steal too.

Heading down the final stretch here. Last 3 picks to go.

How did everyone feel about their draft? Or about the draft in general?

HoraceGrant · Post #216 » by **HoraceGrant** » Mon Sep 29, 2014 10:03 pm

I'm feeling pretty good about my team...as long as a few guys work out. Hoping Darren Collison and Jordan Hill get big roles this season. Hoping for a bounce back for Larry Sanders (Kidd said today he will be one of the teams leaders).

i like my team overall, i took a few big gambles, mixed in some veteran players with up and coming players

i always like flexibility in my strategy so i ended up with 3-PG, 5-SG, 5-SF, 8-PF, 6-C

ill be thin at the PG spot unless Rose can stay healthy, its a gamble i was willing to take since the upside is big, i got an excess of bigs, that'll give me some flexibility if i need to upgrade a certain area

i might not win, but ill have fun like i do every year, good luck guys

Derrick Rose, Tony Parker, Lou Williams
Bradley Beal, Arron Afflalo, Terrence Ross
Loul Deng, Wilson Chandler, Khris Middleton
Blake Griffin, Taj Gibson, Boris Diaw
Lamarcus Aldridge, John Henson, Amir Johnson

I'm in the market for a BIG and have a glut of PG's if you're at all interested..

(CP3, Dragic, Rubio, Marshall, Cole) CP3 is the ONLY untouchable.

Pretty pleased with my squad. Plenty of guys who offer value in multiple categories across a couple of positions. 11 of my 15 guys can play two positions.

I've definitely taken some gambles with some selections, but hey, go big or go home.

fendilim · Post #220 » by **fendilim** » Tue Sep 30, 2014 1:56 am

David Lee/Robin Lopez
Dirk/Terrence Jones/Bennet
Josh Smith/Giannis/Brewer/McDaniels
James Harden/Tim Hardaway/Fournier
Rajon Rondo/Lin/Jack

well, pretty thin at the C spot. And Rondo seems to be out for a month or so. lol. I like my team overall. Lots of gambled with Giannis and McDaniels, but their opportunity to start is intriguing. I think Bennett is bound to bounce back.

I think Josh, Giannis, Robin and McDaniels can give me the blocking I need. Josh, Rondo and Brewer, who I hope plays a lot, gives me the steals.

I think Fournier is a wildcard. Ala, Tobias Harris. I just dont see Ridnour and BG playing minutes over him.
